Stewed, and a bit flat initially. Well past it’s prime still but holds together night 2. However Look past this and there is a wine of some complexity and subtlety especially with appropriately matched food. Still has lovely, soft lingering tannins and mouth grip.

Awesome nose. Berries and forest floor.great sense of terroir. Flavor same. After 1.5 hrs of opening both nose and palate died and became quite muted. So great out of bottle but don't give it much air..

Despite its age this wine still has subtle complexity with obvious terroir pedigree. Best matched with appropriate good to get the most out of it.
